I can not tell you how much I appreciate all of your support. BWL, Winged Phantom, Catherine with a C, Nanner, Lori185, Philly Collar, Sherry Elaine, and everyone else that is helping me get better day by day. You make me feel so much better assuring me of good things and running those evil little thoughts right out of my head. I think this forum should be on every Docs list of thing to do to get better. I,ve had a good day today and you all have made it better. Hope your doing OK Sandra, I am praying for your comfort and recovery.

Hi BDW2,

I'm so glad you're having a good day!!

I agree with you that this forum should be on every Docs list of thing to do to get better. It should also be on their list of things to read to educate themselves...perhaps they'd learn to be more compassionate and listen and learn... etc...etc....Well, I can dream can't I?

Hope you continue to have better days!!

Take Care,

Joanne

Thanks BDW, but remember this is a self-fulfilling board. You give to us too in many ways. It's like a giant safety net made up of the most understanding people.
